I am currently working as a senior analyst in Technology Consulting at EY. CTC 12 LPA. I want to pursue higher studies in US . I am unsure should I go for MS ? Or MBA? if MS then which colleges should I target as per my skill? I want to wrap up higher studies in 15-18 months max

Both are completely different career paths mate, so if you’re sure what you want to do next, the decision shouldn’t be too difficult for you.

If you want to continue in tech role, you should be looking to pursue MS. If you want to enter into management (product/tech systems/delivery/project), do MBA.

Once you choose the career path and degree, choose what domain/area you want to pursue your degree in. Accordingly you need to choose the university, as not every university has the course you are interested in.

What are your plans after finishing your higher studies in US?
